I’ve been trying to follow the Bitcoin Unlimited hack timeline (2017-Mar) and there seems to be conflicting stories on both sides. It’s obviously to confuse the 3rd party into finding the truth. My main questions are:

When was the exploit discovered and by whom?

When was the fix issued after the discovery of the exploit?

When did the hack occur to knock out over 700+ Bitcoin Unlimited nodes?

There were reports of these 700+ nodes going offline and then within a few hours, it all came back online. If this is the case, how does one conclude that these 700+ nodes are controlled by a few people?

Who are the main characters on both sides in this hack to affect news stories and perception?
